OnerS OF Poverty NJ SSdmStr6SS who
will devote time to fitting herself for this
work cen fail of these comforts, for this
is one field of labor that is not overcrowd-
ed. Ali housekeepers will testify to the
difficulty of obtaining this kind of help,
and one qualified for simple dressmaking,
cutting cbildren's clothes and neat white
sewing, finds no difficulty in earning 81 a
day, always her dinner, and not infre-
quently board and lodging, she for the
time being regarded as q welcome addi-
ton to the family. And yet on the
threshold of this avenue to well paid Ia
Dor, the same old objection is urged girls
are willing to work in shops, but feel
their position lowered if asked to do sim
liar work in private houses. III
these objections there is want
of reason, for no situation in the
domestic life differs from thst assumed
in marriage, and if there be difference
the hardness comes to the wife Of the
middle class, who in the struggle to keep
up appearances has to be nurse, seam
stress and hOusemaid, and oftentimes
cook and laundress. The want is seam
stresses, not the glrl who SeWs so much
as one who can do the family sewing
with brains, and if girls would qualify
themselves and cast aside all foolish
prejudice, the tales of the woes of the
sewing women would be less frequent.
The song OF band and gusset, and seam
was the song of the factory where men
dominate, and not the refrain of q sewing
girl in the home of Overburdened house
keepers, where her presence is eagerly
expected and her coming planned for.
The spring brings with it change IN ell
departments of the woman's kingdom,
and by no means as the least, the clean
ing out Of the winters dirt and rubbish.
This is such work that what with win
doWs and paint To be washed, stoves TO
be put away, and carpets to be taken
"p and shaken, the young
housekeeper grows fairly dizzy at
though, and even Older heads have not
learned to plan the work successfully.
If there be one injunction over all it is,
take it slowly, do not allow the demon of
p-side-downHl to rule, but take one
room ct a time, that the inmates of that
home be not like NOgh'S dove, without
rest for the sole of their feet. Let one
room be finished and rendered cOmforta-
ole before another is upset, and then
there will be less discomfort during the
necessary work Of house cleaning. This
work is important for health and no
closet or stOW-aWay place should be over
looked, but all be thoroughly ventilated
and before their contents are restored a
thorough sitting Of the worthless, that
these places may not be numbered with
rubbish.
